Ingrained dirt on skin

2»

Comments

  • Its def ingrained dirt. Some small areas do peel off. I have tried using Double Base cream for dry skin on the areas for weeks but hasnt made much difference.
    I will have to try the washing powder method.
    I'm not diabetic

    Thanks

    sorry to ask but where hav you got dirt from that won't come off?

    I don't see how it would go into your skin so muh that your skin would bleed before it came off?

    I used to date a mechanic who had lots of dirt on his hands and it took lots of ard work to get his hands REALLY clean for going out etc... but it came off evantually without making him bleed.
